Global Industrial 796589N Teardrop Pallet Rack Add-on Unit

Product Description

The GLOBAL INDUSTRIAL 796589N is a teardrop-style pallet rack add-on unit built for heavy-duty industrial storage applications. The unit frames and beams are constructed from heavy-gauge welded steel - 13-gauge one-piece uprights and 15-gauge step beams - and finished in a durable epoxy coating. It measures 120 inches wide, 48 inches deep, and 96 inches tall, with a shelf capacity of 5,630 pounds. The add-on configuration includes one upright frame and two pairs of shelf beams, allowing warehouse personnel, facility managers, and storage installers to extend an existing teardrop rack bay without additional hardware or tools.

This rack add-on unit is suited for distribution centers, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and any commercial or industrial environment requiring organized pallet storage. The 1-5/8-inch step beam profile accommodates standard cross bars and decking panels. Upright height adjusts at 2-inch increments, giving installers flexibility to configure shelf levels for varying load heights. The unit is designed to attach to a compatible teardrop-style starter unit and share one upright frame with the adjacent bay.
